Boo the Dog
The dog, Boo, is selling itself as the cutest dog ever. The dog is perceived to live a “lavish” lifestyle. It has pictures with famous people such as: George Stephanopoulos, Tory Burch, Dan Harris, and Oprah. Its information leads us to believe Boo lives a normal lifestyle as a dog though by liking to run outside and playing with other dogs. Boo’s wall-posts match its information because people post commenting on how cute Boo is and other comments about his adorable looks.
The advertising on the side of the webpage is for boots, which hints at my tendency to online shop. Other advertisements were for acne cream and to “win a Nook.” I am not too sure why I have these advertisements. These advertisements on the side are completely random, except for the ad for women’s boots. This ad definitely matches my web history from previous purchases of boots. These advertisements are mostly explicit. They say “Like this and get a free Nook” or “Stylish boots for $39.99.” All these explicit advertisements have pictures to go along with them to lure in users even more. The targeted audience seems to be younger women from the assortment of advertisements, like shoes and skin care. For me personally, these advertisements do not appeal to me because I have learned to block them out. I would never notice them unless asked to.
